1 Hagi agonafima nemaniza afi meme afutamimo'za anenta'ma nentaza kna fatgoa kagra antahi'nampi? Kagra nezmaganke'za afi dia afu'mo'za anentara nentazafi?

“[Job], do you know at what time/season [of the year] the female mountain goats give birth? Have you watched the wild deer while their fawns were being born?

2 Memene dia afumofo anentamo'zama nezmarera arimpafima nemaniza ikama'a antahi'nano? Nezamarera'ma kase zamantesnia kna kagra kenka antahinka hu'nampi?

Do you know how many months pass from the time they become pregnant until their fawns are born?

3 Memene dia afumo'zama anenta'ma antenakura, zamaga renamagi'za mopare manine'za anentara antazageno zamatazamo'a amne nehie.

[When they give birth, ] they crouch down so that the fawns do not [get hurt by] falling to the ground when they are born.

4 Ana hutazage'za ana anentatamimo'za ta'nopafi mani'ne'za nena hute'za, nezamarerana atre'zama nevu'za ete rukrahera hu'za nomaze.

The young fawns grow up in the open fields, and then they leave their mothers and do not return to them again.

5 Afi donki afu'ma rente'naza nofira iza katufegeno fru huno vano nehie?

“Who allows the wild donkeys to go wherever they want [DOU]?

6 Hagege huno tra'zama omane'nea ka'ma koka zamuge'za nemanizage'na, hagemoke'ma hu'nea mopa Nagra zamuge'za nonkuma zamia ante'za nemanize.

I am the one who put them in the desert, in places where grass does not grow.

7 Ana donki afutamimo'za ran kumapima nemaniza vahe'mofo zamagasasankegura zamavaresra nehu'za, vahe'mo'zama zamazeri agazonema hunaku'ma kema nehazage'za, kezmia nontahize.

They do not like the noise in the cities; [in the desert] they do not have to listen to the shouts of those who force donkeys to work.

8 Ana donki afutamimo'za agonaramimpina vano nehu'za, tra'zama nesnagura hake'za vano nehaze.

They go to the hills to find food; there they search for grass to eat.

9 Afi bulimakaomo'a fru huno mani'neno kagri eri'zana erigahifi? Ana nehuno hanima hanigeno'a bulimakao afu nompina emasegahifi?

:Will a wild ox agree to work for you? Will it allow you to keep it penned up at night in the place where you put feed for your animals?

10 Afi bulimakao afu'mofona kare namare zafare nofira rentetenka, hanankeno kamagera nevuno, hozafina mopa rekorino vugahifi?

And can you fasten it with a rope so that it will plow furrows/trenches in your fields?

11 Kagra ana bulimakao afu'mofo hankavegura antahineminka, atresnankeno amuhoma hu'nesia eri'zanka'a eri kantegahifi?

Since it is very strong, can you trust it to work for you? Can you go away after you tell it what work it should do [and assume that it will do that work]?

12 Kagra ana afi bulimakao afumofo hankavegu nentahinka atresnankeno, hozakafintira witia erino witi honama neharafina vugahifi?

Can you rely on it to come back [from the field], bringing your grain to the place where you thresh it?

13 Mananinkna za'za anankene namama Ostritsie nehaza namamo'a, muse nehuno agekona rutafra tafra nehie. Hianagi azokamo'a za'za aginkunane afi patomofo azoka knara osu'ne.

“[Think also about] the ostriches. [They] joyfully flap their wings, but they do not have wing feathers [that enable them to fly] like storks do.

14 Ostriti namamo'za mopamofo agofetu amura antete'za zamatre'za vazageno mopamofo amuhomo zamazeri amuho hige'za nemanize.

Ostriches lay their eggs on top of the ground [and then walk away], leaving the eggs to be warmed in the sand.

15 Hagi vahe'mo'o, mago afi zagamo'o agiareti amu'ama rempoke zankura Ostritsimo'a agesa nontahie.

Ostriches do not worry that some wild animal may step on the eggs and crush them [DOU].

16 Zamagri'ma zamatama krige'zama kase zamante'naza zankura ontahi'za, ru namamo'ma kase zamante'nea anenta'ma hiaza hu'za kegavahu so'e nosaze.

Ostriches act cruelly towards their chicks; they act as though the chicks belonged to some other ostrich. They are not concerned if [their chicks die], [and so] the laying of the eggs was in vain.

17 Na'ankure Anumzamo'a knare antahi'zana nomino, antahi ama'ma hu'zana agripintira eri atre'negu huno anara nehie.

That is because I did not allow ostriches to be wise. I did not enable them to be intelligent.

18 Hianagi ana Ostritsi namamo'ma otino agama nereana, tusi avune anteno agama nerea hosi afu'ene agumpima mani'nea vahera agatereno nevie.

But, when they get up and begin to run, they scornfully laugh at horses with their riders [because the horses cannot run as fast as the ostriches!]

19 Kagra Jopuga hosi afu'mofona hankavea neminka, anankempima me'nea azokara kagra hankeno fore huno me'nefi?

And [think about] horses. [Job], are you the one who caused horses to be strong? Are you the one who put flowing (manes/long hair) on their necks?

20 Kagra hosi afu'mofona hankavea aminkeno ranra kenumo'zama nehazaza huno takaunerefi? Hosi afu'mo'zama zamageru'ma nerazazamo'a vahera zamazeri koro nehie.

Are you the one who enabled them to leap forward like locusts? When they (snort/blow loudly through their noses), they cause people to be afraid.

21 Ana hosi afu'mo'za zamagra'a hankavegu nentahi'za, haru hu'za mareri'za tami'za nehu'za zamagareti mopa rentrako nehu'za, hatera zamagare'za nevaze.

They paw the ground, rejoicing about being very strong, as they prepare to rush into a battle.

22 Hosi afumo'za korora hu'za antahintahi hakarea osu, bainati kazinteti'ma ha'ma nehazage'za hapintira atre'za korora nofraze.

[It is as if] they laugh at the thought of being afraid. They are not afraid of anything! They do not run away when [the soldiers in the battle are fighting each other with] swords.

23 Ana hosi afumo'za hapima nevazageno kevegumo'a vagare vagare nehigeno, karugaru kevereti'ene keveretira zagemofo masamo'a rumarave nehie.

The quivers containing the riders’ arrows rattle against the horses’ sides, and the spears and javelins flash [in the light of the sun].

24 Ha'ma agafa hunaku nehigeno, paziveteti'ma ufema regeno'a, hosi afumo'a haru huno marerino tamino nehuno manirava oheno, aga zanteti hankavetino mopa nemasagie. Ana nehuno agareno ha'pina unefre.

The horses paw the ground fiercely/excitedly, [wanting the battle to begin, ] and they rush into the battle when the trumpet is blown.

25 Paziveteti'ma ufema neraza krafagema hosimo'ma nentahino'a, oho huno nehuno ha'ma afete ne-egeno'a, ha'mofo mna nentahie. Ana nehuno hate'ma ugotama hu'naza sondia vahe'mokizmi zamagerura nentahino, sondia vahe'mo'zama ivigema hu'za aza zamagasasankea nentahie.

They neigh [joyfully] when they hear someone blowing the trumpet. They can smell a battle even when they are far away, and they understand what it means when the commanders shout their commands [to their soldiers].

26 Jopuga kagri antahi'za amage anteno, tumpamo'a ageko'na rutarerino sauti kaziga enevifi?

“[And think about big birds.] Are you the one who enabled hawks to spread their wings and fly to the south [for the winter]?

27 Hagi kagra hankeno tumpamo'a haresga huno marerino vahe'mo'ma mareoriga'afina nona negifi?

Do eagles fly high up [into the cliffs] to make their nests because you commanded them to do that?

28 Ana tumpamo'a have ra'nafi manino vano nehuno, kenagera anampinka nemase. Hagi nozamimo'a hankave kuma'zami me'neanki'za knare hu'za nemanize.

They live in [holes in] those cliffs. They are safe in those high pointed rocks [because no animals can reach them there].

29 Ana kumate'ma manine'za, ahe'zama nenaza zaga afete mani'nazanagi, amne nezamagaze.

As they watch carefully from there, they see far away the animals that they can kill (OR, dead bodies of animals).

30 Hagi tumpamo'ma mago zagama aheteno'a, ana zaga erino eno anenta'amofona eme amigeno, korama'a anivazu huno nene. Frino kasri'nesia zagamofo avufgama me'nesirega, tumpamo'za ome atru nehanagenka zamagegahane.

After an eagle kills an animal, the baby eagles drink the blood of that animal.”
